a meteorite rise to stardom a once in a century media or hits central russia exploding with a force of around twenty bombs and leaving more than twelve hundred people injured . egypt's support of saeed is gripped by mass protests led by football fans who are furious over the damning court verdict that blames local supporters for a stadium riot that left more than seventy people dead last year. and more nuclear test a shock waves from north korea which detonates a third device despite a un ban and international sanctions.

and broadcasting live from our studios in moscow this is our t.v. with the weekly report i'm sean thomas glad to have you with us now the world was why died this week over dramatic images from central russia a plunging media or exploded with a blinding flash before crashing into the year olds early on friday now it's not hard to imagine the shock felt by the region's residents who saw the fireball race above their heads it took a while for people to realize what was actually happening now the blast set off a powerful shockwave smashing windows in buildings injuring and b. will during those inside after a struggle to locate traces of the space visitor a team from the russian academy of sciences has reportedly found some remnants of the meteor or to go to pieces off takes a closer look at how it all unfolded. it

was like a scene from a movie but with one exception it was real first the brilliant flash this big bright like him shining across the sky you know blinding brighter than the sun the skies were lit up by a meteor streaking across the skies above the russian city of over one and they have thousand kilometers east of moscow where not just any usual glare on the floor i thought it all lies from a cockpit then we went to the window saw this strange cloud and then and then this . way we turned around and the wall was a gun like someone had moved it the series of massive explosions rocked the entire city damaging buildings and shattering windows. nasa said the explosive force of the media were breaking up was the equivalent of

two one to hear oshima bombs over twelve hundred people were injured including over two hundred children mostly from pieces of shattered glass. the windows just exploded i saw one girl he had and a bring his hand we were told to quickly put all clothes on and run out so many were able to film the owner of the phenomenon later flooding the web with footage as rumors spread of what it might have been a stricken airplane a satellite that fell out of orbit even the beginning of the end of the world would nessa's reported seeing fragments of the crashing all across the region. i saw a small can there was a weird smell but it was not a fire so i think it's a piece of me to write a nice small during them no for now the immediate priority is to look after the injured and repair the damage to buildings especially the broken windows in schools and residential areas as temperatures. drop below minus fifteen celsius is going to

take time to clear everything else but for now science like this collapsed factory or a clear reminder no matter how advanced technology gets nowadays often when it comes to nature we can only watch helplessly and hope for the best. or to go to prison off reporting from the urals of there now despite the huge size of the media or its appearance in the russian skies was a surprise that entered earth's atmosphere completely unnoticed by anyone or. explains why. you may wonder why the scientists haven't seen this thing coming after all it was quite a doozy was really large as a matter of fact buzz at the same time the scientists are saying that there's way too many things flying out there in outer space and although this one was a big one they can't really keep track of everything that's coming but seriously this thing weighed more than ten thousand tons when it was approaching earth or so the scientists say of course when it entered the atmosphere it mindblowing the

speed of thirty kilometers per second that's really really fast when it entered the atmosphere it broke into several pieces and those went scattering all over the region this is the region that we're actually concerned with but it actually went all around the place we're only going with what the scientists and the emergency ministries are saying and they're saying that this icy pits this is a crater where the fragment one of the fragments has fallen of course we have to understand that this actually has been the biggest thing to hit this planet in over a century or so other scientists believe the last time something like this happened was in one thousand nine hundred eighty when the your crash landed somewhere in siberia destroying thousands of square kilometers of forests causing acid rains to fall causing me to asians and plants and forest but it's also one of the biggest mysteries in the universe because nobody has ever found a crater from the meteor or no no fragments of the meteor have been found so this

is kind of a big mystery that a lot of people are trying to cash in on this the even even today one hundred years later but back to reality back to present a region of course there has been plenty of damage you've seen the pictures of the damage plants and buildings but actually a lot of people are saying it could have been a lot worse if history is any indication they're all. massive you were cosmo. and russia the european space agency others that are out there trying to detect its record afterwards but honestly there's a lot of there's hundreds of thousands and their biggest focus is on the really large ones ones that are hundreds of meters in diameter or kilometers in diameter that could potentially you know do to us what happened to the dinosaurs and another thing to have been scraped in is actually something of a nuclear hotspot in russia and fact during the soviet era this was the place for

nuclear research so it has at least seven nuclear facilities that are located in the region and a lot of people are saying that if at least one of them was hit with one of the fragments from an asteroid we would have been dealing with complications infinitely worse than we're having on our hands right now we would be dealing with a nuclear disaster but thankfully that did not happen and although this entire event was rather frightening and quite damaging still things could have been a lot worse and it's a good thing that everything turned out the way it did well as you can imagine the dramatic strike lead to immediate online response with the video being shared and bloggers speculating as to what had just happened the impact also triggered an entrepreneurial impulse amongst some of the locals who wanted to sell parts of what they claimed was the media now the most expensive pieces what it said any potential buyer back a cool ten thousand dollars however the offer left many skeptical as even scientists

at the scene had trouble locating what was left of the meteor after it broke apart artie's lindsey friends and kevin owen have been looking at the online reaction. the twitter sphere is blowing up the internet is just chock full of funny outrageous just odd things people are posting with maybe a little too much time on their hands you know all this video is great and wonderful but then you hit twitter and you see posts like this tanks are passing down the streets citizens are urged to get out of the shelters lunch box handouts pardon had been arranged only thing and you realized ok this is not really happening this is not the truth the same guy sits there and starts tweeting about what's happening in town saying we're being given chemical protection and gas masks the city is almost entirely evacuated we're setting up barricades and in islam you know we're joking about a lot of the power of these things i mean it was a frightening of if you didn't know what was happening at the time if you're reading this it could spread apart it would startle you and why is he why does it have so much time to tweet about all of this happening and then you've got you've

got the merely funny stuff the citizens of chile have been skaar already checking to see which superpowers they have god knows of you know the radiation from the explosion may have caused them to have extra to be excellent tomorrow but honestly don't you come to our local weather reports it's negative seventy degrees celsius in chelyabinsk there's wind and a slight meteor that's more clever yeah. i think so ok and then you know who is the guy who you know it's that one liner that happens around valentine's day pluck a star from the sky who is that you know what who promised to pick a star from the sky on valentine's day you're certainly going to town that are going to change of course and then you've got people from all over you know english speaking countries tweeting about breaking news baby found in the middle of the media right crush that he's miraculously unharmed wrapped in what seems to be red cave and allusion to superman if you get that i got when i saw the thought that was nice and then of course you got the photoshop action angry birds flying in on the

tail as a meteor coming and then you got the russian or bruce willis popular boy will only go around the world dinosaurs this stuff kill. my brother please don't laugh said happened all those years ago guess you never know got a better man don't know what's going to hit you just know i was kicked in iraq right over there russia from the united states yelled karate hero because he didn't go as the way he's friends on that one and then of course our the rock down to the crash site as he does you know as i think i wanted to that's nice excellent lots of fun while also we've got one as well a football fan was over in britain for a couple of this one football speculating over that much for three rushes in the evening glynn's a little hole just a day before he said it could be read snow or a meteor or a meteor shower would come down and hey what did he know that we didn't when i saw this i was thinking you know what i want to know when the red snow is. your place

more news today says once again flared up. these are the images of world you've been seeing from the streets of canada. giant corporations are the day. i. block from moscow this is our team glad to have you back with us north korea is reportedly preparing for fresh nuclear tests that despite widespread international fury after detonated a third atomic device on tuesday described the move as an effort to shore up its

national security and safeguard its sovereignty against what it called outrageous u.s. hostility that has prompted warnings from washington and its allies of more sanctions against the communist state asia based independent news editor james corbett says that the timing of the latest test could not have been worse really i think going to fall into a lot of diplomatic pressure on china to use its leverage with north korea in this and i imagine that officials in beijing must have known that this this was coming probably in the next few days and it certainly is it couldn't have happened at a worse time internationally speaking it's the lunar new year in china so basically the entire country is on holiday and in the u.s. there is no confirmed secretary of defense or central intelligence director so it's a very interesting time throw that through into that the wild card of xi jinping we don't know much about him or how he's going to lead china and the fact that kim jong un is a relatively new leader as well you also have the new on the government in japan and there's a lot of wildcards in this mix to see how this is going to shake out but i think on

the question of china specifically if they have a lot of pressure that they can put on north korea. now let's take a look at some other international news in brief for you this hour in northern nigeria a security guard had been shot dead and seven of foreign workers have been kidnapped when militants attacked a construction site two lebanese and italian and a greek are thought to be among the hostages militant abducting foreigners and wealthy nigerians for ransom has become a relatively common occurrence in the country last month's deadly algeria oil plant a siege left many fearing such attacks would surge in west africa because of regional instability. in pakistan people have taken to the streets to voice their outrage at the killing of eighty one shia muslims in the city of. protestors in islam about any karate have demanded the government to boost security and to take action against the sunni militants who carried out the attack allegedly some families even refused to bury the victims until they see their demands

who is holed up in the country's london embassy political analyst says korea's victory could have a positive impact across the whole continent. this very strong popular movement trying to keep move away from united states is gaining momentum but it is having its problems anyway the fact that ruffo that corridor with korea will undoubtedly win is a very good positive point it is however a truth of life that it will do or is a relatively small country so that it does not have that much leverage but in the case of for example mr julius son no doubt that will continue that will mean a continued support for him and his extended stay at the editorial embassy in the united kingdom public opinion throughout latin america has grown very weary with u.s. intervention in u.k. interventions throughout the continent which explains why countries like venezuela ecuador bolivia even argentina brazil. are having governments that are keeping very much for the arm's length from the united states there are exceptions just colombia

for different reasons and surely which is a traditional hello of the united kingdom however i would i would say that the opposition hardly stands a chance of winning especially since most of them to a greater or lesser degree are pro-u.s. spain is engulfed in protests with thousands gathering in madrid and in several other cities in simultaneous marches but over quite different issues employees of the spanish airline and the berry are angry at its british based parent company's plans to layoff almost five thousand workers that's a quarter of its staff and in a separate rally thousands marched against the government proposals to partly privatized public health care political analyst miguel on homaro believes that the protests are becoming more generalized with more anger being directed against the political system as a whole. the way the the work is so high various seeds this magic that was affected between nigeria and we just there was two years ago has favored massively which is

a ways off from tough but the fact is that it is true that. the leadership of these holding is mostly pretty spaced and they have been unable to so you to find a compromise with the spine is where force and i blend them but that's that's the way to use with we have seen in the last year was mostly sick tory of protests health care or education where it is essential now we see in a more generalized anger of the system not just of the government but of the whole political system and this has to do with with the scandals of corruption which are now very prominent in the spanish media people are very angry about that and what we've seen is so actually something very new in spain a very wide and deep protest and that is it goes far beyond a state see all the problems caused by that and coming up robert foster musically targets one of the most painful problems for the u.s.

policy that's in juice news right here on our tour. united states is based on. you know by care rest say you'll never have the false story play. oh the news is welcome to the show today come on out to sing we've just got a studio upgrade like i'm on the system is devoted to the debate which is busy dividing the united states has to work for the big mass shootings from the receiver to just say me look stupid while someone kill them and to stop the bloodshed of this one bombs to prevent me coming is there a nonsense of the scheme passed we can stop exploit kids from opposing factions the military some see is a representative of the black panthers problem is you know i'm missing to be on judgement preach peace compassion in abundance believe me out entirely hardesty

some anonymous i agree but why ban guns what you learn to read you kidding the second amendment is the sacred law beyond gun guns are evil people are just sick suggested john trying to mask only happen when people don't have access to semiautomatic weapons and we were given this precious right to bear arms not for hunting bears but to protect just you know from from each of americans who are defending the land from the colonists no property from our own freaking government mistakes the winter when it comes to pay to try to take power they take the people like hitler or stalin still come on our chancellor and chavez george the third in fact is that a brit. in the seventy seventy six look up sometimes you can't tell him what comes try to tell god is ok let's hear from general but it's the first time we've had you both in the studio together frankly i'm shocked by what business about people american lives is a tragedy eleven thousand gun murders a year can't eat surely we need to stop this insanity what do you suggest to start

the citizenry leave guns to the criminals smugglers and the military with mission is the key. we need a war on drugs and work like our war on drugs was done from my cold and far away general place i understand you respect the second amendment that's clear but can you provide events like the overseer. when temperance shooting shooters same story no longer called a good you've been taking your meds the feds will go away to warn you david koresh displays shooting bob that isn't in connecticut was a deliberate orchestrated feature spike set up with aim to take our weapons and make the best of them better use them plus a couple times they can find. some like st are waiting to take the united states and dave to give a treat to take their shit in this car the only one standing in the way of it if the slaves want guns let them be our supremacy doesn't depend on weaponry with skulls meet your money in it we control every aspect of your life why the logical

examination if you think you've got stuff to read than what you're waiting for the authorities strip you of your liberty for the civil rights and to keep if you won super bowls. globalists. well i guess that sums it up and brings us to point to the end of our report on guns in the divided stakes of america certainly it's not our place to pass judgment but listen with a question and a last comment if your passion for the second amendment were missed by down the

first and then independent a bonus media. the president's day would always be there but. if it's in to be significant it's typically begins something close to the push to get to. know weekends with the troops stay safe everyone. all of those north korean scamps added again another nuclear test in north korea has made all the headlines trust me nuclear missiles are something worth being concerned over but haven't we heard this song and dance before all the way back in two thousand to the north korean scoring to the b.b.c.

ruled that they have a secret weapons program and turned their young beyond nuclear reactor back on since then every once while a missile flies people see the war's coming and silence then another test of some sort shock horror and then silence again with crew just uses this is a bargaining tool to get what they want and rather how wacky the north korean state may seem they understand that launching one or two missiles against united states means they probably won't even hit their target and in return their entire country would turn into ash instantly this situation really isn't cause for concern until something big changes like the us not being in a position to support south korea japan or some other dramatic event that changes the game like china giving up their support for the north korean side but for now the cycle just keep going on and on and about two years the same headlines will be back with the same fear will be back a lather rinse repeat but that's just my opinion.
